Great plant to grow as a groundcover !!
I have established the Creeping Thyme in my garden as a groundcover between rocks, and it just looks great! It is the second year, and I have already a dense mat of foliage that is covered by small pinkish flowers. It is evergreen, has slight lemon like scent and requires virtually no any maintenance.
